Actual concern, had these subtle issues with wine games multiple times. Often they aren’t game breaking just annoying.

Interesting, there is no support of direct io from wine, and it’s a different to what linux does (50k iops is still laughable tbh) altogether.

FPS is not that meaningful of a metric if you get worse graphics or flitches due to wine not implementing something. It might be something that you can’t see of course.

I’ve never heard about directstorage before, and by the description it’s an xbox api, does windows even support it?

The goal is to enable handling of up to 50,000 requests per second while using at most 10% of a single CPU core

That’s not really impressive, you get 100k iops without any tweaking at all and cpu shouldn’t even blink at it.

Well, sucks for them, but why fedora should do it?

For some people, does it even presents itself as a switch killer and not steam deck killer?

I would like to play HoMM 3 or Unreal Tournament (Facing worlds uwu), or Reaident Evil Code Veronica, or any number of other games, is it still possible 🙃?

Can switch2 run games from 26 years ago?

iirc he moved because nexus allowed to download previous versions.

When your mod is big-fix mod people expect that it won’t modify the gameplay, yes that’s one of the reasons, also his ‘licence’ disallows people from using anything but latest version of the mods which only support latest version of the game, also he is a dick.

What’s nice about it? You hardly can use currency that changes value this fast.

It’s incredible how hard it is to navigate, it’s laggy, they constantly move things around, etc.

That’s great news, hope they will start making better ui as well.

First game was alright, second will be alright.

Maybe it’s time for arm boards to actually support their trash. UEFI itself supports arm.

That’s great news, here to another 200!

There is something wrong with the article, it feels as if it was badly machine translated and then *improved* by ai.

What exactly being “publisher” means? It’s not like most games are released on physical media these days or need distribution contracts in multiple countries.

“Everyone” here is a very small amount of people with required knowledge. Not talking about monetary requirement.

There were a few games that explained slow updates with “just download them on steam” when asked, ofc it’s not on steam that publishers are lazy. Publishers are lazy because steam has such an overwhelming majority that they can ignore customers on other platforms. I do prefer gog because they are drm free and offline, so in the inevitable crash of global internet i will have my oldie games, lol.
